Home Department

The Home Department's statement of purpose is to "use all available resources to build and protect a safe and just society for all the people of the Bailiwick."

Each of these Operational Service Areas has its own set of operational objectives and its own Service Head. Further information on each of these Operational Service Areas can be obtained by following the related links at the side of this page.

Delivery Plan

The Home Department is committed to delivering the objectives in the States Strategic Plan endorsed by the States and delivering its mandate.

The Delivery Plan sets out the Department's primary objectives and priorities over a fixed period, and includes an analysis of any risks that may impact on the Department's ability to meet its responsibilities.

The Department's Delivery Plan is fully aligned to the States Strategic Plan and can be downloaded from this page.
